The most common reason for this is that you may have DX 10 preview checked on your FSX graphics page.Bob

I don't think this is a DX10 problem. The most common reason for "grey" textures is a mismatch between the texture folder ID and the "title=" statement in the aircraft.cfg file. Check to see if these two items match exactly (make sure the word "texture" is spelled correctly). Also, make sure there are no internal folders within the texture folder. In other words, make sure that when you open a particular texture folder you see the *.bmp or *.dds files and not another folder.Another reason for a "grey" texture is a mismatch between the texture files and the aircraft model. For example, if you put a "GE" engine texture into a "PW" aircraft folder the texture will not display properly. So, make sure the texture file is in the proper aircraft folder.fb
